BICYCLE TRAFFIC SKILLS 101

The Poughkeepsie-Dutchess County Transportation Council and New York Bicycling Coalition are co-sponsoring Traffic Skills 101, a bicycling course to give you the confidence to ride safely and legally in traffic or on the trail.

The cost for the two days is $20 per person, which includes a 6-month trial membership to the New York Bicycling Coalition. Registration is half price, thanks to a subsidy from Dutchess County and the Poughkeepsie-Dutchess County Transportation Council.
